Series 4...What do we know?

Although there has been very little information released so far about CDW series 4 I am beginning to kick into gear with "pre-production" and getting scripts out to voice actors. With this in mind I thought it might be a good idea to run through what we already know about series 4.





Characters:

The Doctor - Voiced by Edward Gore
Fletcher Reed - Voiced by Ryan John
Mystus - Voiced by Hannah Ray

Episodes:

14 in total, split over two 7 episode blocks. The first half of the series should be released around April of 2013 with the second half coming in October time.

The only two part story that I have planned at the moment will be episodes 13 and 14.

If all goes to plan there are 4 guest writers lined up to write for the series. Blink and Burkey return after writing for series 2 and new writers PreTitleSequence and J R Mortimer will be coming on board to lend their creative talents.

There could be two Doctor-Lite episodes.

There will be ONE HELL of a mid series-cliffhanger.

Story:

The Contingent will be the main (Deus-ex type) "baddy". If you remember rightly, they were created by accident when the Guardians of Time meddled in the Time War. They will have a BIG presence in the series and you will be seeing and hearing a lot of them. Infact, if I do say so myself, they are quite scary.
 
I can officially reveal that Ida Scott will be returning in her new role as "The Oracle". She featured in the 2009 specials as well as series 2 of Christel Doctor Who and I am pleased to say that she will make a return in the second half of series 4. 

The Doctor will have more than one costume for the series, and this will prove to be a very important plot-point.



This series is going to go in a slightly different direction to the others, and that is mainly because of what "The Contingent" can achieve. This has allowed me to add a lot of twists, turns and intrigue to what will hopefully be the best series yet.
